“SILENCE!!” Leo shouted, his voice booming over the chaos that had erupted in the council chamber. The room fell quiet almost instantly, the council members staring at him with wide eyes, their fear still palpable but now held in check by the force of his command.He took a deep breath, trying to steady himself as he looked around at the gathered faces. “We cannot afford to fall apart now. Adrian has aligned with Tiana, and that makes them a greater threat than we anticipated, but we are not defeated. We will not let fear control us.”Kira, the sharp-eyed woman who had been one of the most vocal during the earlier discussions, leaned forward, her expression intense. “But how do we fight them, Leo? An army of the dead, and now Tiana with her knowledge of our defenses? We need a plan, and we need it now.”Leo nodded, his jaw clenched tightly. “We do need a plan, and it starts with preparing ourselves for the worst. We’ll need to double our patrols, increase security around the borders,

As the sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a golden glow across the restless sea, Leo and I stood side by side on the deck of the pirate ship. The ship was a weathered beast, sturdy and seasoned by countless battles, its sails billowing with the wind that carried us further from the shore. The decision had been made: we would stay aboard for the night, too weary and too uncertain of the waters to risk traveling back to land immediately.The pirate, who had introduced himself as Captain Roderick Flint, stood near the helm, barking orders at his crew. He was a rough-looking man, his face lined with scars, his beard thick and unruly. But there was a glint in his eyes, a sharpness that spoke of experience and cunning.“Captain Flint,” Leo called out, catching the man’s attention. “I never expected to see you again, not after all these years.”Roderick turned, a crooked grin spreading across his face. “Aye, it’s been a long time, Leo. I was beginning to think you’d forgotten all about o

I nodded, unable to tear my eyes away from the dark shapes closing in on us. The air was thick with tension, every sound heightened—the snap of sails, the creak of wood, the distant roar of waves crashing against the rocks.“Leo,” I whispered, my voice barely audible over the chaos around us. “What do we do?”His jaw clenched, eyes narrowing as he stared at the approaching ships. “We hold our ground,” he said, his voice firm. “But stay close to me, Selene. I won’t let anything happen to you.”I could see the fear in his eyes, the worry he tried so hard to hide. It wasn’t just for me—it was for our people, for everyone we were trying to protect. But even in the face of that fear, he stood tall, unyielding.Captain Flint’s voice cut through the tension like a knife. “Prepare the cannons! If they want a fight, we’ll give them one!”The crew responded instantly, moving with a practiced efficiency that came from years of experience. I could see the determination in their faces, but there w

The realization struck me like a physical blow, and I felt my breath catch in my throat. They were distracting us. But why? What were they really after?“Leo!” I shouted, turning toward the ship that was now pulling away from me. Panic surged in my chest as I watched the distance between us grow. “Leo, wait!”But the wind carried my voice away, lost in the crash of the waves and the crackling of the fires I’d ignited. The ship continued to sail away, heading back toward Starfall Pack, where Leo’s people were waiting, unaware of the danger creeping up on them.I clenched my fists, feeling the heat of my power flare up in response to my rising fear. The flames that had saved us now flickered and danced at my fingertips, eager to be unleashed once more. But I forced them down, knowing that I needed to stay calm, to think clearly.What had Leo said earlier? Something about keeping our focus, about not letting the enemy draw us into a trap. And yet here we were, falling right into it. They

The sound of the horn sent a jolt of adrenaline through my veins. The battle was beginning, and there was no turning back now. I could hear the hurried shouts of our warriors, the clattering of armor and weapons as everyone rushed to their positions. My heart pounded in my chest, every beat a reminder that this was real, that everything I held dear was on the line.I pushed through the chaos, searching for Leo amidst the throng of bodies moving in every direction. When I finally found him, he was already in his wolf form, towering over everyone else with his massive auburn coat and glowing amber eyes. Even in the middle of all this, he was a sight to behold, a force of nature, commanding and powerful.But before I could reach him, Ethan appeared at my side, his hand gripping my arm firmly. “Selena, stay close to me,” he urged, his eyes darting around as if anticipating the enemy to appear at any moment.“No,” I said, shaking my head, pulling away from him. “I can’t just hide, Ethan.
